i will make big cuts in defense spending and there are big things we need to do with federal spending. those would be non-starters, but when you look at these plans, they're much more political productions than they are substantive productions. as we know, there are three branches of government including congress. no one looks at a candidate's plan and thinks this is going to happen on january 21st or 22nd or whenever the date is that this person first takes office, should they become president. we have poll after poll after poll that shows that most republicans want barack obama to be defeated. so in the end this will be by and large in the republican party a calculation on who can beat barack obama. >> for months we've been talking -- longer than months, in some cases for years about something called comprehensive tax reform. taking all these pages of the tax code and getting rid of them and doing something more simple. its took herman cain's 9-9-9 to get everybody studying it and seeing whether it made sense and whether it would work. did it surprise you that that got a great deal

you liked that also. >> they did show modern things for big kids like myself. spyro adventure is a kid's game coming out this fall for multiple systems. it's actually part toy, part video game. you get three action figures in the box with the game, and something called the portable power. it's like a thing you plug into the console, and when you put these figures down near it, it unlocks that character in the game. there are more than 30 of these characters, each with their own skills that you can trade and collect, and when you go to a friend's house and you put your character down on their system, it remembers the level that you're at in this role-playing game so if there's some memory built into the action figures. i think activision has another hit on their hands here. it would be remiss not to talk about knekt, which is the ultimate control for xbox 60. it's where you use your body. you can roam around a virtual disneyland, all 85 acres of it. this is great for little, little kids where parents and their kids and siblings can interact with the likes of elm
